Tegaserod is a 5-HT4 agonist manufactured by Novartis and sold under the names Zelnorm and Zelmac for the management of irritable bowel syndrome and constipation.[1] Approved by the FDA in 2002, it was subsequently removed from the market in 2007 due to FDA concerns about possible adverse cardiovascular effects. Before then, it was the only drug approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration to help relieve the abdominal discomfort, bloating, and constipation associated with irritable bowel syndrome. Its use was also approved to treat chronic idiopathic constipation.[2]

In 2000, originator Novartis established an alliance with Bristol-Myers Squibb for the codevelopment and copromotion of tegaserod maleate, which is now available in more than 55 countries worldwide for the treatment of IBS with constipation. In 2015, Zelnorm was acquired by Sloan Pharma from Novartis.

Novartis’ brand name Zelnorm (tegaserod) had originally received approval from the US FDA in 2002 for the treatment of irritable bowel syndrome with constipation (IBS-C) [58]. It was, however, voluntarily withdrawn from widespread use in the US market in 2007 after concerns arose over the possibility that tegaserod could potentially cause dangerous cardiovascular events in patients [5,8]. Since then, closer evaluations of the original data suggesting such cardiovascular risk have resulted in the limited reintroduction or ‘re-approval’ of tegaserod for treatment of IBS-C specifically in female patients less than 65 years of age and whom are considered to be at a lower risk of a cardiovascular event than the broader population . Zelnorm (tegaserod) by Sloan Pharma subsequently gained re-approval in April of 2019 [5]. Nevertheless, tegaserod remains un-approved in certain regions [7].

Despite the relative complications involved in its history of regulatory approval, ever since its first introduction in 2002 tegaserod remains the only therapy for IBS-C that possesses the unique mechanism of action of acting on serotonin-4 (5-HT(4)) receptors in smooth muscle cells and in the gastrointestinal wall to facilitate actions like esophageal relaxation, peristaltic gut movement, and natural secretions in the gut, among others

Mechanism of action

The drug functions as a motility stimulant, achieving its desired therapeutic effects through activation of the 5-HT4 receptors of the enteric nervous system in the gastrointestinal tract. It also stimulates gastrointestinal motility and the peristaltic reflex, and allegedly reduces abdominal pain.[3] Additionally, tegaserod is a 5-HT2B receptor antagonist.[4]

Withdrawal from market

On 30 March 2007, the United States Food and Drug Administration requested that Novartis withdraw Zelnorm from shelves.[5] The FDA alleges a relationship between prescriptions of the drug and increased risks of heart attack or stroke. An analysis of data collected on over 18,000 patients demonstrated adverse cardiovascular events in 13 of 11,614 patients treated with Zelnorm (a rate of 0.11%) as compared with 1 of 7,031 patients treated with placebo (a rate of 0.01%). Novartis alleges all of the affected patients had preexisting cardiovascular disease or risk factors for such, and further alleges that no causal relationship between tegaserod use and cardiovascular events has been demonstrated.[6] On the same day as the FDA announcement, Novartis Pharmaceuticals Canada announced that it was suspending marketing and sales of the drug in Canada in response to a request from Health Canada.[7] In a large cohort study based on a US health insurance database, no increase in the risk of cardiovascular events were found under tegaserod treatment.[8] Currently, tegaserod may only be used in emergency situations only with prior authorization from the FDA.[9]

Image result for tegaserod synthesis

  • In a preferred embodiment of the first aspect of the present invention, the process of preparing tegaserod or a salt thereof comprises the steps of:
    • (a) coupling S-methyl-isothiosemicarbazide or a salt thereof and 5-methoxy-indole-3-carboxaldehyde to form 1-((5-methoxy-1H-indol-3-yl)methylene)-S-methyl-isothiosemicarbazide:
  • Figure US20090306170A1-20091210-C00002
  • and
    • (b) reacting the 1-((5-methoxy-1H-indol-3-yl)methylene)-S-methyl-isothiosemicarbazide with n-pentyl amine to form tegaserod:
  • Figure US20090306170A1-20091210-C00003
  • [0013]
    The skilled person will appreciate that:
      • S-methyl-isothiosemicarbazide and salts thereof exist in two tautomeric forms:
  • Figure US20090306170A1-20091210-C00004
      • 1-((5-methoxy-1H-indol-3-yl)methylene)-S-methyl-isothiosemicarbazide exists in four tautomeric forms:
  • Figure US20090306170A1-20091210-C00005
      • tegaserod exists in four tautomeric forms:
  • Figure US20090306170A1-20091210-C00006
  • [0017]
    It is to be understood that where tautomeric forms occur, the present invention embraces all tautomeric forms and their mixtures, i.e. although S-methyl-isothio-semicarbazide and 1-((5-methoxy-1H-indol-3-yl)methylene)-S-methyl-isothiosemi-carbazide are mostly defined for convenience by reference to one isothiosemicarbazide form only, and although tegaserod is mostly defined for convenience by reference to one guanidino form only, the invention is not to be understood as being in any way limited by the particular nomenclature or graphical representation employed.
  • [0018]
    When an S-methyl-isothiosemicarbazide salt is used in the process of the present invention, this may be an acid addition salt with acids, including but not limited to inorganic acids such as hydrohalogenic acids (for example, hydrofluoric, hydrochloric, hydrobromic or hydroiodic acid) or other inorganic acids (for example, nitric, perchloric, sulfuric or phosphoric acid), or organic acids such as organic carboxylic acids (for example, propionic, butyric, glycolic, lactic, mandelic, citric, acetic, benzoic, salicylic, succinic, malic or hydroxysuccinic, tartaric, fumaric, maleic, hydroxymaleic, mucic or galactaric, gluconic, pantothenic or pamoic acid), organic sulfonic acids (for example, methanesulfonic, trifluoromethanesulfonic, ethanesulfonic, 2-hydroxyethanesulfonic, benzenesulfonic, p-toluenesulfonic, naphthalene-2-sulfonic or camphorsulfonic acid) or amino acids (for example, ornithinic, glutamic or aspartic acid). Preferably the S-methyl-isothiosemicarbazide salt is a hydrohalide (such as the hydrofluoride, hydrochloride, hydrobromide, or hydroiodide) or a sulfonate (such as the methanesulfonate, benzenesulfonate, or p-toluenesulfonate). Preferably the S-methyl-isothiosemicarbazide salt is S-methyl-isothiosemicarbazide hydroiodide.
    • The following synthetic scheme demonstrates a preferred process of the present invention.

      The invention is now demonstrated by the following non-limiting illustrative example.

EXAMPLE Step 1: Schiff’s Base Formation of 5-methoxy-indole-3-carboxaldehyde and S-methyl-isothiosemi-carbazide hydroiodide

    • [0033]
      5-Methoxy-indole-3-carboxaldehyde (1.5 g, 1 eq) and S-methyl-isothiosemicarbazide hydroiodide (3.99 g, 2 eq) in methanol (15 ml, 10 vol) were stirred in the presence of triethylamine (3 ml, 2 vol) at 25-30° C. for 2 hours. After completion of the reaction, the methanol was removed by distillation under reduced pressure at 45-50° C. and ethyl acetate (10.5 ml, 7 vol) was added to the residue to precipitate out the product. The product, 1-((5-methoxy-1H-indol-3-yl)methylene)-S-methyl-isothiosemi-carbazide, was separated by filtration, washed with ethyl acetate (3 ml, 2 vol) and dried under vacuum at 45-50° C. The yield was almost quantitative (˜100%).

Step 2: Conversion of 1-((5-methoxy-1H-indol-3-yl)methylene)-S-methyl-isothiosemicarbazide to 1-((5-methoxy-1H-indol-3-yl)methyleneamino)-3-pentyl-guanidine (Tegaserod)

    • [0034]
      A solution of 1-((5-methoxy-1H-indol-3-yl)methylene)-S-methyl-isothiosemicarbazide (8.0 g, 1 eq) and n-pentyl amine (2.65 g, 1 eq) was refluxed in methanol (8 ml, 1 vol) at 66° C. for 4 hours. After completion of the reaction, the methanol was removed by distillation under reduced pressure at 45-50° C. to obtain tegaserod free base as a yellowish brown solid. Yield=97%. HPLC purity=95%.

Step 3: Conversion of 1-((5-methoxy-1H-indol-3-yl)methyleneamino)-3-pentyl-guanidine (Tegaserod) to Tegaserod Maleate

  • [0035]
    1-((5-Methoxy-1H-indol-3-yl)methyleneamino)-3-pentyl-guanidine (55 g, 1 eq) was taken in methanol (357.5 ml, 6.5 vol) and stirred. To this reaction mixture was added at room temperature a solution of maleic acid (74.15 g, 3.5 eq) in water (137.5 ml, 2.5 vol) and the reaction mixture stirred for one hour at room temperature. The solid obtained was then filtered through a Buchner funnel and dried at 700 mmHg and 500° C. Yield=36.8 g, 48.42%. HPLC purity=99.45%.

Tegaserod maleate is an aminoguanidine indole 5HT4 agonist for the treatment of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Tegaserod maleate has the following structure:

According to the prescribing information (Physician’s Desk Reference, 57th Ed., at Page 2339), tegaserod as the maleate salt is a white to off-white crystalline powder and is slightly soluble in ethanol and very slightly soluble in water. Tegaserod maleate is available commercially as ZELNORM®, in which it is present as crystalline form.
Tegaserod maleate is disclosed in US patent No. 5,510,353 and in its equivalent EP 0 505 322 (example 13), and is reported to have a melting point of 1900C (table 1 example 13).
The literature (Buchheit K.H, et al., J.Med.Chem., 1995, 38, 2331) describes a general method for the condensation of amino guanidines with indole-3-carbadehydes in methanol in the presence of HCl (pH 3-4). The product obtained after solvent evaporation maybe converted to its hydrochloride salt by treatment of the methanolic solution with diethylether/HCl followed by recrystallization from
methanol/diethylether. Tegaserod base prepared according to this general method is characterized solely by a melting point of 155 0C (table 3 compound 5b). Additional Tegaserod maleate characterization was done by 1H and 13C-NMR according to the literature (Jing J. et. al., Guangdong Weiliang Yuansu Kexue, 2002, 9/2, 51).
WO 04/085393 discloses four crystalline forms of tegaserod maleate. The search report for WO 04/085393 further identifies WO 00/10526, and Drugs Fut. 1999, 24(1) which provides an overview for tegaserod maleate. Additional crystalline forms of tegaserod maleate are provided in WO 2005/058819, one of which is characterized by an X-ray Diffraction pattern having peaks at 15.7, 16.9, 17.2, 24.1, 24.6 and 25.2±0.2 two theta (designated as Form B in that PCT publication).
The solid state physical properties of tegaserod salt may be influenced by controlling the conditions under which tegaserod salt is obtained in solid Form. Solid state physical properties include, for example, the flowability of the milled solid. Flowability affects the ease with which the material is handled during processing into a pharmaceutical product. When particles of the powdered compound do not flow past each other easily, a formulation specialist must take that fact into account in developing a tablet or capsule formulation, which may necessitate the use of glidants such as colloidal silicon dioxide, talc, starch or tribasic calcium phosphate.
Another important solid state property of a pharmaceutical compound is its rate of dissolution in aqueous fluid. The rate of dissolution of an active ingredient in a patient’s stomach fluid may have therapeutic consequences since it imposes an upper limit on the rate at which an orally- administered active ingredient may reach the patient’s bloodstream. The rate of dissolution is also a consideration in
formulating syrups, elixirs and other liquid medicaments. The solid state Form of a compound may also affect its behavior on compaction and its storage stability.
These practical physical characteristics are influenced by the conformation and orientation of molecules in the unit cell, which defines a particular polymorphic Form of a substance. The polymorphic form may give rise to thermal behavior different from that of the amorphous material or another polymorphic Form. Thermal behavior is measured in the laboratory by such techniques as capillary melting point, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and may be used to distinguish some polymorphic forms from others. A particular polymorphic Form may also give rise to distinct spectroscopic properties that may be detectable by powder X-ray crystallography, solid state C NMR spectrometry and infrared spectrometry.
The discovery of new polymorphic forms of a pharmaceutically useful compound provides a new opportunity to improve the performance characteristics of a pharmaceutical product. It enlarges the repertoire of materials that a formulation scientist has available for designing, for example, a pharmaceutical dosage form of a drug with a targeted release profile or other desired characteristic.
The polymorphic forms may further help in purification of tegaserod, particularly if they possess high crystallinity. In the event of metastability, a metastable polymorphic form may be used to prepare a more stable polymorph.
Hence, discovery of new polymorphic forms and new processes help in advancing a formulation scientist in preparation of tegaserod as an active pharmaceutical ingredient in a formulation.
The present invention provides an additional polymorphic form of a maleate salt of tegaserod.

Example 1 : Preparation of sesqui-tefiaserod maleate Foπn H2 through tegaserod base

To a mixture of AGPΗI (112.7 g) in 283 mL of water was added 5-MICHO (45 g) followed by NaOH (52.8 g, 47%) and stirred at room temperature. After three hours, 522 mL of ethyl acetate were added and the mixture stirred for an additional four hours. After phase separation at 400C the organic phase was washed with water (3 x 218 ml), and filtrated under vacuum. The resulting solution was heated to 60 0C and a solution of maleic acid (14.4 g) in 45 mL water was dropped during half hour, and the reaction mixture stirred at the same temperature for an additional two hours. The mixture was cooled to 100C during one hour, kept under stirring at the same temperature for 12 hrs and then filtered under vacuum. The wet product was washed twice with 65 ml of ethyl acetate and dried in a vacuum oven at 45°C for 16 hours to give 85% of the product.

Example 2: Preparation of sesqui-tegaserod maleate Form H2
45 gr MICHO were added to a 1 L reactor at RT. A solution of 112.7 gr of AGP HI and 283 ml water was added to the reactor. 52.8 gr of NaOH 47% were added to the mixture while stirring. The mixture was heated to 400C and stirred for 12 hrs. 522 ml of Ethyl Acetate were added and the mixture was stirred for 4 hrs.
After phase separation at 400C the organic phase was washed with water (3 x 218 ml), and filtrated under vacuum.
The mixture was heated to 600C and a mixture o 14.4 gr of Maleic Acid in 45 ml water was dropped during 5 min.
The mixture was stirred at 600C for 2 hrs.
The mixture was cooled to 100C during 1 hour, stirred at 100C for 13 hrs and then filtered under vacuum. The wet product was washed twice with 65 ml of n-Propanol. The wet product was dried in a vacuum oven at 45°C.
Yield: 71.2%

Example 3: Preparation of Tegaserod maleate Form B from Sesqui-tegaserod maleate Form H2
6.9 g of maleic acid were added to a slurry of Sesqui-Tegaserod maleate Form H2 (41.5 g) in 208 ml n-propanol at room temperature. The mixture was stirred for 5 hours at the same temperature, filtered and washed with n-propanol. After drying on vacuum oven at 450C for 15 hours the product was analyzed by XRD and found to be Form B (89% yield).

 The formation of hydrazones is catalyzed by both general acids and general bases. General base catalysis of dehydration of the tetrahedral intermediate involves nitrogen deprotonation concerted with elimination of hydroxide ion as shown in the Scheme (Sayer J.M., et al. J. Am.

In many cases, the equilibrium constant for their formation in aqueous solution is high. The additional stability may be attributed to the participation of the atom adjacent to the nitrogen in delocalized bonding. – + RRC = N – NH2 ~*→- RRC – N = NH2

In order to obtain only the maleic salt, the product when using an acid halide (HA) or other acids has to first be converted into the free base, before the addition of maleic acid (Path a), which results in an additional step to the synthesis. On the other hand, the reaction of the present invention in the presence of organic or inorganic base results in the formation of tegaserod free base which gives only the maleate salt after the addition of maleic acid (Path b).

Tegaserod, chemically named 2-[(5-methoxy-liϊ-indol-3-yl)methylene]-IV-pentylhydrazine- carboximidamide, is a selective serotonin 4 (5-HT4) receptor agonist, which can be used to treat gastrointestinal disorders such as heartburn, bloating, postoperative ileus, abdominal pain and discomfort, epigastric pain, nausea, vomiting, regurgitation, intestinal pseudoobstruction, irritable bowel syndrome and gastro-oesophageal reflux. Tegaserod as the maleate salt is marketed for the short-term treatment of irritable bowel syndrome in women whose primary bowel symptom is constipation.

Tegaserod, represented by the formula (I), was first described in US 5 510 353 as well as processes for its preparation. The maleate salt of tegaserod is also disclosed, but interestingly a method of manufacturing tegaserod maleate is not disclosed. The only characterizing data is the melting point which is disclosed as 1900C for the maleate salt and 124°C for the tegaserod base.

Figure imgf000002_0001

WO 2006/116953 describes crystalline forms of the hydrobromide, dihydrogen phosphate and oxalate salts of tegaserod. Also claimed is a process for preparing the hydrochloride, hydrobromide, dihydrogen phosphate, tartrate, citrate, lactate, mesylate, oxalate, succinate, glutarate, adipate, salicylate, sulfate, mandelate, camphor sulfonate and hydrogen sulfate salts of tegaserod from a specific crystalline form of tegaserod base. Another process described is a method of preparing the dihydrogen phosphate, maleate, tartrate, citrate, mesylate, lactate, succinate, oxalate, hydrochloride, salicylate, glutarate, adipate, hydrobromide, sulfate and hydrogen sulfate from a hydrogen halide salt of tegaserod.

There are often major hurdles to overcome before an active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) can be formulated into a composition that can be marketed. For example, the rate of dissolution of an API that has poor aqueous solubility is often problematic. The aqueous solubility is a major influence on the bioavailability of the API such that a poorly soluble API can mean the API is not available to have a pharmaceutical effect on the body. The API can also cause problems during manufacture of a pharmaceutical composition. For example, flowability, compactability and stickiness are all factors affected by the solid state properties of an API.

It has thus always been an aim of the pharmaceutical industry to provide many forms of an API in order to mitigate the problems described above. Different salts, crystalline forms also known as polymorphs, solvates and amorphous forms are all forms of an API that can have different physiochemical and biological characteristics. Indeed, it has been discovered that the tegaserod maleate product on the market, Zelnorm , has been linked to an increase in heart problems in a proportion of individuals. One possible reason is that the maleate moiety reacts with the tegaserod, resulting over time in the production of a toxic impurity.

This impurity could be a contributor to the heart problems seen in some patients.
